How do I get rid of fear?

I won’t waste everybodies time with my story but it’s pelvic floor nerve pain and cannot sit for 9 months. Yes stress was high as was fear of needing a pelvic surgery. It was never ever mentioned but I found out a prolapse existed and became terrified I’d get one. I think I still am plus I do have shocking disfunction there. I also have no pain tolerance for that area. I broke my back years ago and coped so well with that and it’s ongoing pain. I live in fear of my anus pretty much and have NO idea how not to be obsessed and afraid.
 
Avoid all the horror stories and forums out there that are people discussing their ailments without a clear path to recovery. Instead focus on all the success stories that exist when people treat their symptoms with a TMS recovery program. We have an entire sub-forum of Success Stories and there are many on YouTube. Where you focus your attention will determine your level of fear.

Hang in there. There is hope.
 
As Ellen mentioned, start with the TMS recovery program! One of the things you will learn is to sit with the fear and not let it control you. Hang in there.
